Today I have something to tell you all: a rather boring story, but a very intriguing one.
First, let me ask you: do you believe in parallel worlds?
Realities that can be so similar to ours that the differences are almost imperceptible, almost insignificant.
Or realities where the difference is so great that they're nearly unrecognizable, making you wonder if this could be a parallel reality.
Want an example?
Imagine a reality where everything is made of ink, or a reality where everything is made of candy.
Who can say that's impossible?
Just because science can't explain something doesn't mean it shouldn't exist.
But let's get back to the point.
Let me introduce myself to everyone: my name is Mark Sanchez, and I'm 30 years old... or I was.
Because my self in this world is 17 years old.
If it weren't for the memories of that other me, I'd think I had traveled back to my youth.
But things don't stop there.
My parents, who love each other very much and are still married, are divorced in this world.
That surprised me.
I don't know the reason for the divorce or why they're separated in this world.
My father is American and his name is William Sanchez, and my mother is Brazilian and her name is Sara Abreu, just like in my life in the previous world.
After the separation, I returned to Brazil with my mother, and my father stayed in the United States.
In my previous life, I lived in Dallas, Texas, where I was born and lived my whole life before crossing into this world.
The year is also different.
In the other world, it was the year 2025, and in this world, it's 2006.
That made me realize my birth year changed.
According to my previous life, I was born in 1995, and in the year 2025, I turned 30 years old.
But here, I'm 17 and the year is 2006.
If I subtract my age from the current year, it gives exactly 1989.
I was surprised by the changes that can exist in parallel worlds.
Luckily, my name is still Mark Sanchez; it would be strange to get used to a new name.
Of course, my appearance is the same, which made me sad because my looks are average.
Luckily, like every transmigrator, I also have my golden finger—my cheat.
To be specific, it's a system called the Infinite Dimensional Store.
At first, I thought the word "infinite" referred to the endless realities out there.
But I was wrong—and I'm glad I was!
Sure, the store's products span infinite worlds, which is great, but what really made me happy is that I don't need to spend money or complete missions for system points or anything like that.
My system is simple and practical, and I like simplicity.
Because my system has infinite, unlimited points.
Along with infinite storage space and a simple status panel.
[Name: Mark Sanchez.]
[Title: Dimensional Traveler]
[Race: Human.] [Abilities: None]
[System Functions: Dimensional Store, Unlimited Points, Unlimited Inventory.]
That was my first look at the status panel.
So I opened the store according to the information I received and looked at the contents, and I was surprised because the first three items belonged to worlds I know.
[Item Name: Immortal Sage Body]
[Description: A bloodline constitution belonging to the Senju Clan from the Naruto world.] [Features: Strong vitality, natural affinity with nature energy, powerful recovery.]
[Price: 100,000 SP]
...
[Item Name: Self-Healing (Deadpool)]
[Description: Self-healing ability belonging to the character Deadpool from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.] [Features: Immortality, supernatural regeneration, rapid healing.]
[Price: 10,000 SP]
...
[Item Name: NZT-48]
[Description: A special drug that allows the user to use 100% of their brain, but has side effects.] [Quantity: 100 units per bottle.]
[Price: 100 SP]
...
And that's what I saw.
Of course, I was very happy about it, but since I'm on a plane, I can only hold back my emotions.
You must be wondering where I'm going.
I'm going to live with my father in the United States.
To be more exact, I'm going to live in Forks.
It's a city located in Clallam County, in the state of Washington, in the United States, on the Olympic Peninsula.
Yes, it's the same city where Twilight takes place; even the year matches the movie's timeline, and I'm excited for my new life in Forks.
I hope this is a parallel reality of Twilight.
Even if I'm wrong, it doesn't matter—with the system in hand, I'm free of worries.
I'm glad I got to talk to you.
I just wanted to vent a little about this shocking secret that happened to me.
Until next time...
(I'm rewriting this novel. This chapter is meant to test the waters. Leave a comment with your thoughts so I'll know if it's worth continuing to write.
I'd also like to recommend my other novels: "I'm in the World of the Young Sheldon TV Series" and "Avatar Korra – I Have Infinite Systems".)
